the disease by individual countries. The protocol involves the testing of subjects presenting with the correct symptoms subject to the way they are judged of certain criteria, each decision to
test is based on a case by case basis and is at the discretion of the local authorities. The criteria of assessment include HPAI in a local bird population and
contact with another patient with an unexplained repository disease and a positive result for Influenza A. For patients who are in areas where there have not been any cases recorded
there is the additional consideration of geographical proximity to the virus. The testing should be confirmed by one of the WHO laboratories in the area from whom the data is
collected. The reports are pout together quarterly but the WHO releases updates to the progress and spread of the disease more frequently whenever there is relevant data to report.
